Minnesota 28, Tampa Bay 14
— Vikings storm back after
humiliating loss to St. Louis last

Buffalo 27, New England 13
— Bills rolled over Pats 31-0 two
weeks ago and it should be much
shortly before the 1 p.m. kick
off at Fayetteville. Zinamon, the
Hogs’ leading tackier, is suffer
ing from a sprained knee.
Holtz also said tailback Bobby
Joe Edmonds remains on the
questionable list with a sprained
ankle.
“We’ll see a lot of people this
Saturday,” Holtz said as the
Hogs wrapped up drills for the
Hogs’ annual homecoming
game. “Injuries have forced our
hand.”
“They will play a lot,” he said,
“not because of injuries, but be
cause they’ve had a good week.
“It’s been a good week of
practice, but it’s been a long
week because of the injuries. A
lot of people have missed valu
able practice time. I think we
have it all down. It’s just a matter
of doing it.”

the same this time. Pats look like
they’re starting to fade after
good start.
New York Jets 30, Baltimore
17 —Jets finally found some in

called desperation — and re

more offensive balance to dent
New York defense.
Atlanta 24, New Orleans 20
— Falcons send high-flying
offense against Saints’ No. 1

seems to have more weapons
and is playing well.
Green Bay 27, Cleveland 20
- - Packers have worst defense in
VFL but QB Lynn Dickey
should generate enough offense
to hold off Browns.

of Rams and veteran Walter
Payton of Bears. Dickerson has

Houston 20, Cincinnati 19 —

and recent solid efforts may
push them over the top.

For Los Angeles Raiders’
;oach Tom Flores, one of the
greatest rivalries pro football
has ever known is now merely a
fond memory.
The Kansas City Chiefs and
the Raiders, the AFL’s first two
Super Bowl representatives, had
many memorable matchups in
the late 1960 s and early ‘70s as
Len Dawson tried to outpass
Daryle “Mad Bomber” Lamoni-
ca and Jan Stenerud and George
Blanda dueled from the kicking
tee.
When the Raiders and Chiefs
meet Sunday in Arrowhead Sta
dium, Los Angeles, 6-3, will still
be playing for high stakes. Kan
sas City, 4-5, will be playing for
survival.
“I remember it real well,”
Flores says of the Chiefs-Raiders
battles. “We had some games
back then. I like to remember
the rivalry, but I’m afraid it’s not
what it used to be. The players
today don’t remember it. They
were just pups. Most of them
probably think the AFL is a
union.”
The Raiders, who lead the
AFC in scoring, are field goal
favorites to post their second
triumph over the Chiefs in four
weeks. On Oct. 9, Los Angeles
edged Kansas City 21-20 when
Marcus Allen recovered a
fourth-quarter fumble in the
'In the early '70s we used to win the division
early, with three or four games left, but no
more. Too many teams are too close in talent. ’

race.

end zone. Linebacker Ted Hen
dricks secured the win in the fin
al seconds by blocking Nick
Lowery’s field goal attempt.
Los Angeles is tied with sur
prising Denver atop the AFC
West while the Chiefs must
avoid a loss to have any realistic
post-season hopes. The Raiders
have been hurt by the turnover
in their losses but Flores thinks
Los Angeles fans are guilty of
fumbling their affections;
“It’s crazy,” Flores says.
“We’re 6-3 and tied for the divi
sion lead and people are won
dering what’s wrong with us. De
nver’s 6-3 and the people there
are thrilled to death with the
team. We’re still 6-3. There’s no
crisis. This is no time to panic.
It’s going to be a fight right
down to the end. It always is.
“In the early ‘70s we used to
win the division early, with three
or four games left, but no more.
Too many teams are too close in
talent. Now we’re tied, there’s no
more cushion, and we’ve got to
work.”
Elsewhere Sunday, Denver is
at Seattle, Miami at San Francis
co, Buffalo at New England,
Baltimore at the New York Jets,
Cincinnati at Houston, San
Diego at Pittsburgh, Atlanta at
New Orleans, Chicago at the Los
Angeles Rams, Dallas at Phi
ladelphia, St. Louis at Washing
ton, Tampa Bay at Minnesota
and Cleveland vs. Green Bay at
Milwaukee. The New York
Giants are at Detroit Monday
night.
The Broncos have won four
straight and are tied with Miami
for fewest points allowed in the
league’ Steve DeBerg comes off
a career-best 350-yard effort
against the Chiefs while Seattle
capitalized on five turnovers to
beat the Raiders. Rookie Curt
Warner paces AFC rushers with
755 yards, but the Seahawks are
last in AFC offense and next-to-
last in defense.
Miami, 6-3, is tied with Buffa
lo atop the AFC East and the
Dolphins have beaten the 49ers
in all three previous meetings.
Miami rookie Dan Marino is the
top-rated passer in the AFC and
has been intercepted just once in
his last 110 pass attempts. The
49ers, 6-3, come off a 2/-13 loss
to the Jets and gained a season-
low 312 yards.
